Dress Up As A Vampire
Why does not go old-school with the traditional bloodsucker from Transylvania? Use a foundation in a shade that is lighter than your skin.

Fill up the eyebrows with dark brown or black pencils for an exaggerated appearance. Use lots of mascara on the outer half of the lashes.
